Water under floor mats (from puddles during rain?) - what do I need to wory about?
Its been unusually rainy in my town for the past 3 weeks and I have been noticing a bad smell in my car, like dirty gym clothes, and today I finally figured out the source: there is water UNDER my floor mats. I think maybe water got in the bottom of my car when I drove through a puddle and I think the rubber lining on the back of the floor mats keep the moisture trapped. Today I took everything out of my car including all floor mats and used a bunch of bath towels, and then paper towels, to blot up all the moisture I could and then left it in the bright sun all day with all doors and hatch open to try to dry it all out. My question is: Do I need to worry about any long term issues? And is it possible the water is still in the car somewhere? like under the floor mats? What would you smart people do in this situation?
